The jetBook Lite currently only supports Arial and Verdana fonts. However, there is a simple way to reformat nearly any eBook to the Font and Justification that you desire.

All software used in this video is free:

You can reformat books from nearly any format into a text document using Calibre: http://calibre-ebook.com/

Use Project Gutenberg to locate many free ebooks: http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Main_Page

Even after a couple of years, this is one of the best instructional videos for jetBook Lite owners like me. I've followed your instructions to create PDF ebooks for my JBL. I especially liked your tip about BeCyPDFMetaEdit. I didn't know you could update the metadata on a PDF until I watched your video. That trick works perfectly for me. I also like the way you can add a picture and fit it perfectly into the PDF book to fit the JBL screen.

Do you have maybe some good advise how to adjust PDF for ectaco jetbook? I have many books in PDF and I wish I could do the same what you show but openoffice does't work that way. Is there any easy method? Thanks
